Boots & Needles EPK

Boots & Needles combines the talents of Lauren Asheim and Dallas Cornell and features Vintage Country, Traditional, and Rockabilly vibes.  You may recognize Lauren from past bands including The Hula Peppers and Slippery People.  She has also trod the boards as an actor and vocalist all over the Twin Cities including the Guthrie Theater, the History Theater, Mixed Precipitation and more.  Dallas brings a wealth of musical skills and an eye for design to the duo and also plays with the Cornell Power Service.  Known as the "human metronome" and a skilled sewing artist, he is full of surprises.  On bass is the incomparable Darryl Cornell who lends his "lead bass" and deep musical skills to the group. They aim to share their love of all things country with some sparkles & dirt and a few more unexpected pairings along the way.

"Their sound wasn’t quite like anything I’d ever heard, and their mix of originals with twists on traditional songs—as well as their obvious chemistry, quirky aesthetic and sense of fun—captivated me immediately."

- Carol Roth, Adventures in Americana
